Internal audits are a requirement of the 18001 specification and enable each company to evaluate what they are doing well and where they can improve. Internal auditors are usually sourced from the company’s staff. It is often best to train a minimum of two, as they are not able to audit their own work. However, it is recommended that more are trained to allow for holidays, absence and re – employment. The 18001 training internal auditing course typically lasts two days and includes guidance on the skills and understanding an auditor will need and how to plan, conduct and report the findings of the audit. In addition it also includes how to identify and act on improvements that need to be made as a result of the audit.

This involves going into companies and completing external audits, by reviewing the documents, records and working practices. Companies need to pass this yearly external audit to gain their OHSAS registration.
